And here you make the famous error of mixing up the model with praxis, that is if you didn't make a typing error and really meant registrANT. It's the registrant that is the owner of the zone data, and if he outsources to a third party dns-operator, he remains responsible for his zone data. He needs to realize this when outsourcing to a 3th party dns-operator, and that is why I want to define what a dns-operator's role is. The fact that in practice the registrant often outsources his dns-operations to the same entity that also functions as registrar does not change the model. The problem is that there is an administrative contractual relationship between the registry and the registrar what administrative procedures are concerned, but there is no relationship between the registry and the registrar in it's function as 3th party dns-operator. That relationship is purely a bilateral agreement between the registrar and registrant, with no influence in terms of policy from the registry on that relationship. That is because the registrant is free to run his own dns-operations or outsource to a completely different 3th party dns-operator, not being a registrar. -- Antoin Verschuren Technical Policy Advisor SIDN Utrechtseweg 310, PO Box 5022, 6802 EA Arnhem, The Netherlands P: +31 26 3525500 F: +31 26 3525505 M: +31 6 23368970 mailto:antoin.verschu...@sidn.nl xmpp:ant...@jabber.sidn.nl http://www.sidn.nl/
